The Bruery, a pioneer in craft brewing and barrel-aging innovation, proudly announces the return of its acclaimed Private Barrel Program for 2025. Launching on Thursday, March 13th, this unique program invites beer enthusiasts, gift-givers, and businesses to craft a truly personalized barrel-aged beer experience—without the typical barriers of cost or scale.
Unlike traditional barrel programs that require purchasing a full 53-gallon barrel—an option often limited to small groups or businesses—The Bruery’s Private Barrel Program offers a more accessible path to customization. With packages starting at 12, 24, or 36 bottles, customers can enjoy a tailored, small-batch experience while still receiving a beer crafted with the highest level of precision and care. It remains the only program of its kind in the country at this scale, reinforcing The Bruery’s dedication to craft, connection, and innovation.
A Personalized Experience from Barrel to Bottle
At the heart of the 2025 Private Barrel Program is a meticulously blended batch of Black Tuesday, The Bruery’s legendary bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout. This year’s edition features a curated selection of barrels, including those from Peerless Rye, Four Gate Bourbon, Wild Turkey Bourbon, Zinfandel, and Port, lending rich layers of complexity to an already iconic stout.
For those opting for the 36-bottle package, The Bruery offers an elevated customization experience with the option to add Madagascar vanilla beans or Vermont maple syrup, allowing participants to further personalize their beer’s flavor profile.

The Ultimate Gift for Any Occasion
Beyond its appeal to craft beer enthusiasts, the Private Barrel Program is an unparalleled gifting opportunity. Whether celebrating a wedding, corporate milestone, or holiday season, a custom-labeled bottle of expertly aged beer makes a lasting impression. Imagine gifting every guest at a wedding reception a bottle emblazoned with the couple’s names and a personal message, or presenting a custom brew to top-performing employees or valued clients—a premium alternative to standard branded merchandise.
“Crafting beer has always been about creating connections—sharing stories and experiences over something truly special,” said Barry Holmes, CEO at The Bruery. “The Private Barrel Program takes that concept to the next level. It’s not just about the beer itself, but about the moments it helps create—whether it’s a milestone celebration, a corporate gift, or a holiday gathering.”
Availability and Timeline
The 2025 Private Barrel Program launches on Thursday, March 13th, with limited spots available. Beer is expected to be bottled and ready for pickup or shipping by November 2025, making it an ideal option for holiday gifting.
